Keywords:
English, Literacy, Online learning, YoutubeAbstract
The purpose of this study was to see whether the use of
youtube videos could have a good impact on the English
literacy of junior high school students. Although several
studies research the same thing, the main novelties in this
study are that this study has a positive impact on the spirit of
teaching English teachers, which is different from the
research conducted by Handayani entitled Utilization of
youtube During the Covid 19 Pandemic for Learning Media
English in Improving Vocabulary and Student Understanding,
in this study youtube was only focused on the positive impact
felt by students and was not explained about the increase in
teacher teaching enthusiasm. This study uses a qualitative
descriptive method by observing, interviewing, and
explaining facts, and studying the results contained in the
research results. The results of this study indicate that the
use of youtube during online learning has a positive impact
and increases the English literacy skills of junior high school
students. In conclusion, students' English literacy skills can be
improved by utilizing youtube videos during online learning.
The impact that is felt after using youtube during online
learning is the increase in students' English literacy and the
teachers are more enthusiastic during the online learning
period.
